good comments from all the members Following is one nuance from me .. one main lesson that is learnt by madhavan(in the movie) but not shown explicitly is when at first scene kamal tells madhavan that nowadays good looking, learned people commit crimes more than the not-so-good looking ones... When Yugi sethu steals madhavan's belongings madhavan must have learnt this lesson... in fact apart from the hidden nuances of the film which u have pointed out... the film had lot of out spoken details of the society and what kamal as a individual feels about it... Be it the talk about Working for foreigners when they board the train and little details like when he keeps talking about his fathers death in a Tsunami, he dozes half way through it, meaning he has moved on with the fact of life.. and the way he asks madhavan if he goes around daily with thieves when madhavan says he has not seen thief in real!!!! or when he forgives the man in last scene, when he warns about using wet cell phones... But i do not understand 2 things... why wasn't the rebel song and his Umbrella fight commercially famous when nowadays simple fight sequences with no relevance of place or facts get so much news... and i must say that the press and media have not given the credit to the film that it deserved.... in this world of cheap stories and acting... a Kamal film like this still does not get, if not better, equal hype to Rajini's movies... If one is hyped for its commercial value this film should have been promoted for its story value... Even Kamal requires his films to do good at box office and does not want his films to be called out-of-the-world and great!!!!Other wise he too will jump into the gutter that is around him... and of course one well known trivia for all of us is that we all know how much Sundar.C must have contributed ;-) One more thing... It must be a heart break for some but this film has its "one line" plot from a Hollywood movie called "Trains planes and automobiles" but except the fact that 2 different people are made to travel together due to circumstances and one of them is narrating a story... The idea of atheist, practical, matured man who starts liking the emotional, finicky guy, nasser and kiran's character and also the train scene etc are kamal's own making and the underlying concept of the society is itself very fresh ... SO i hope everyone feels the same way... cos its not a first-scene-to-last remake thanks all hope u all enjoyed my comments

Its one of the best from the great actor......the performance, the story and the subject very touching movie. A must see movie for everyone. Its a serious and simple subject pinned with comedy, romance and the fact of life. If you wanted to see the perfection in cinema, u can witness that perfection in this movie where as even a normal dog (not highbreed versions.....just a street dog) acted in this movie as a character. Actually in Kamal sir's movie we will come out by praising the performance of Kamal sir.....but in this movie some thing disturb u when u come out of the movie......the SUBJECT is very weight and touching. Maddy (madhavan) deserves a word of praise for his acting as well. Totally a fantastic movie.

Don't watch this movie it is completely waste of time.

Yes, if you have atlast come to this webpage in this huge collection of movies database. You must be either a Tamilian i.e. one who speaks or regards his culture as Tamil (or) on the look out for good movies in languages other than English. Though good sub-titles for the movie (for non-Tamilians) could be useful. All the subtelities could be apprecaiated only when you understand and speak contemporary Tamil. Madhavan and Kamal Hasan have done a great job in playing their part in the film. Comparable only to two other Tamil films 'Kurdhipunal'and 'Nayagan'. P.S. :Must watch out for the communist subversive messages in the dialogs.

I consider "Anbe Sivam" as the best movie of all time. Fabulous story, exceptional screenplay and apt comedy make this movie a treat to watch. It's doubtful if anyone else will be able to make a movie again in the same caliber. Unfortunate that it was not sent for the Oscar's. It's music is riveting and apt for the situation. The characters are brilliant. The way the change of heart occurs for Anbu is perfectly done through the screenplay.Kamal at his best throughout the movie and well supported by Madhavan, Naser and others. It is one of the few movies to have a title that was apt for it's screenplay. It speaks about communism, love, friendship and what not. 10 out of 10

What a movie this is!?!! Can Tamil movie industry produce such a master-piece? I had this doubt for a long time..Not now!! This movie is above all. Among the usual formula films, this is a rare Gem! The story is not so new, but the screenplay and acting surpasses everything. Anbarasu(Madhavan) is a posh guy who like to be called A.Ars. While looking for a shooting location just 4 days before the marriage in Orissa, he is left stranded there because of the rains and floods. Sivam(Kamalhassan) is a handicap with bruises all over his face and he walks with a limp. He is on his way to Chennai after getting the check for the flood affected people back in Chennai. Circumstances make them both travel together. Anbarasu is extremely irritated with Sivam and he constantly scolds him for advising him far too much. Amidst that, Sivam's flashback unfolds. It is a usual story of Hero-loves-rich-girl-father-doesn't-accept-so-they-run-off.While they do that, Sivam is involved in an accident and thats the reason he has got all the bruises. When he returns back to see Bala(Kiran -his lover), his father Nasser tells him that she is married and settled in America. So Sivam comes off telling that he wont disturb her anymore. Anbarasu slowly begins to like Sivam who helped him come to Chennai safe and sound before the marriage. When he comes to know of his family, Anbarasu is touched. He asks Sivam to be his brother and to stay with him forever. The story goes as though it is going to have a happy ending, but there is a twist. The girl whom Anbarasu is going to marry is none other than Bala. When Sivam sees that, he is shocked. Nasser calls Sivam and talks with him. Sivam promises that he wont tell Bala about what happened only if Nasser signs the papers to increase the monthly wages of the workers in his factory from 910. He does that and the story does not end there. Nasser asks his right hand (Santhana Barathi) to kill Sivam who does not do that because of humanitarian reasons.The story ends there. The theme "Love is God" is perfectly brought out through this movie. Kamals acting as the handicap Nallasivam makes us cry at many places. Particularly when he sees his face in the mirror after the accident, tears welling up in his eyes, it makes everyone cry! What an actor he is? Madhavan is a surprise package! He has acted really well in this movie. His angry remarks to Sivam and the way he gets irritated by Sivam's stupid comments make it all the more enjoyable. A special mention about the dialog's penned by cartoonist Madhan (who eventually makes a guest appearance in the movie). The dialog's are both imaginative and powerful, which makes us laugh and at the same time think! Sundar.C, a man known for his comedy movies has made an impression here with his Awesome screenplay! Music rendered by Vidhyasagar is worth a mention, particularly the title song "Anbe Sivam" and the duet "Poo Vaasam". For the People who love Good cinema, this is a MUST SEE!!:)

Anbe Sivam is a very decent movie. Great acting by Kamal Hassan, and other cast supports well. It is a touching story about life and how circumstances change your outlook. Shooting locations are refreshing. However, I think the movie is slightly overrated as the story is weak and predictable. You might like it if you go with zero expectations, unlike me who went with an expectation to witness a masterpiece based on overall rating.

A movie of the millennium, I would say that had come from Tamil Film Industry. The environment suited well for this movie. Kamal Hassan was exceptional in acting as usual. Nevertheless, Madhavan did well too. There is no hero in this movie. Only characters. The movie has a strong message to audience. A very good message. It teaches a valuable lesson. It explains what really God is and the true meaning life. The script and screenplay are awesome. There are some humor scenes. That fight could have been avoided. The theme song was really awesome. The song touched me very much. The music was awesome too. Other songs are good too, but not needed. Kama Hassan has given an excellent movie. Hats off to Kamal Hassan... Watch this movie. Learn the true meaning of life. You won't regret it. It's worth it. I give this movie a 9 out of 10. That one mark was removed for that fight. 4 for the story... 2 for performance... 2 for theme song... 1 for other songs... Total, 9/10...
